Program Notes

Based on octatonic scales, Whirlwind is constructed out of fairly basic motifs. These musical ideas are quickly exchanged from one player to another, and the resulting composite melodies give a 'whirlwind' spacial effect. Quirky and fun sections contrasting with mysterious and fluid passages result in a comically dark work.

Instruments:

  • Soprano Saxophone

  • Alto Saxophone

  • Tenor Saxophone

  • Baritone Saxophone
